AREAS OF PRACTICE
Intellectual Property
Intellectual property rights need to be considered by virtually every organization. In an increasingly competitive marketplace, trade marks, trade secrets, domain names, copyrights, patents and other intellectual property are often the organization's most significant assets. Developing and protecting these assets requires skilled legal, technical and business assistance.
Our intellectual property group consists of professionals dedicated to identifying and meeting the needs of clients involved in the development, use and sale of intellectual property in a wide variety of creative activities. Our lawyers are sensitive to the pace and environment unique to our clients and strive for excellence in service. We have lawyers with multi-disciplined backgrounds in areas ranging from engineering and the sciences to management consulting and technical knowledge and experience to effectively counsel clients on the development, use and protection of intellectual property rights. Where disputes arise, Ogilvie LLP has a team of skilled mediators, negotiators and litigators to pursue successful resolution in the most appropriate manner.
